    2x SSA Icon 12"s or 1x SSA Xcon 15" / Which would you choose?

    Thanks for all the input guys. Although the other brand comparisons are appreciated, that's why I said if you "had to" choose between those two options. Because I'd already done some comparative analysis, and wanted to go with their product line. I think I'm gonna grab myself a couple of...

    Want Some Opinions

    My votes for the 15"s. Quite a bit more cone surface and wattage. Don't kill yourself. lol

    Why is SQ better at 4 or 8 ohms compared to 1 or less?

    Lol, let us know how that goes. I kinda doubt it. Be a bit difficult from just bass notes I'd bet, but you have me curious. Although it'll be a little hard since you can't buy exactly the same amp, just rated 2k at different ohms. Which amp are you using currently, and which do you have in mind?

    Why is SQ better at 4 or 8 ohms compared to 1 or less?

    Nothing electronic is 100% efficient that supplies power. The harder it has to work to provide power, the hotter it will get, therefore lowering its ability to supply a steady stream of power. There are ways to improve efficiency, which in most cases is why some items are higher priced...

    Alpine Type x 10 keeps blowing.... Need Help Please!! PICS INCLUDED...!!!

    I wasn't profiling any particular business. I was profiling business behavior. And don't you think if the shop had a side where they weren't guilty they would stop giving him free replacements, and tell him, look if you touch this it's not gonna be covered again?

    Alpine Type x 10 keeps blowing.... Need Help Please!! PICS INCLUDED...!!!

    Obviously they know it's somewhat their fault or else they wouldn't have continued to perform free services. If they feel like it's the end user being "power hungry" they should turn the setting down........especially after the 3rd time to a level where it'd be near impossible to damage...

    Alpine Type x 10 keeps blowing.... Need Help Please!! PICS INCLUDED...!!!

    If you ask me, places that do stuff for free repeatedly are just covering their *****, and attempting to keep the customer from spreading bad reviews. They honestly sound like idiots to me. If they knew what they were doing they wouldn't have had to replace anything more than once, giving them...

    2x SSA Icon 12"s or 1x SSA Xcon 15" / Which would you choose?

    Maybe not required. But you know how us guys are. I'd feel almost neglectful to have it able to handle that much extra power, and not supply it. lol. A little extra money isn't my primary concern. And if it gives me a little potential for more then even better. Also I just plain like the...

    2x SSA Icon 12"s or 1x SSA Xcon 15" / Which would you choose?

    My goals are to have something that will most effectively utilize the power being supplied, in the space provided. I'd like to have something with a decent SPL, that will sound clean and smooth at the same time. If I went with one Xcon, I would still have the space to add on a second later...

    2x SSA Icon 12"s or 1x SSA Xcon 15" / Which would you choose?

    Out of curiousity, if you only had two choices and they were between those listed in the title both running in the SSA recommended Optimal Sealed box's, being pushed by an MB Quart DSC-2000.1d, which would you choose? Xcon 15" Optimal Sealed box: Sound Solutions Audio - 15" XCON Optimal Sealed...

    RE Audio Amps / Any Good?

    Thanks for the info. It's a shame what happened when they sold. I rather liked them before.

    setting gain via dmm

    Ah, my bad. There would be the missing piece, or rather the one my mind fabricated. Sorry about that.

    setting gain via dmm

    You're right this is about helping him, and if his are dual 4ohm voice coils, he can attain a 4ohm load.
